Thanks to everyone who has shared data! In addition to the posts there are 60 entries in the form so we are off to a good start. I know it's still a long time to go, but please share/update your results if you are notified in group 2 or later on given a waitlist notice. One of the main things we want to do is to get a rough sense of when the cutoffs happened for each group and compare that to previous years.  But I can't estimate the cutoff for group 1 without some good data on the times for round 2, etc.

Modifying my message to fit the format: These results make no sense!

Entry 1 Laptop
Entry time: 9:01:??
Submission time: 9:04:00?
Browser: Cannot remember
How certain are you about the times? Not at all certain past the minute -- I can't be certain of the second
What hotel was your top choice? Hilton Bayfront
How many downtown hotels did you choose (0-6): 6
How many non-downtown hotels did you choose (0-6): 0
How many rooms did you request?: 1
What was the earliest arrival date and latest departure date requested?: 7/17 - 7/21
What option did you pick if your preferred hotels weren't available? (closest to the convention center, lowest available rate, shuttle route, disregard my request if choices aren't available): can't remember
What waitlist preference did you pick?: Yes
Did you enter a Member ID?: Yes
If you get a notification, what group were you in? Second group
What was your result? Non-downtown hotel, not on my list, nowhere close to where I was requesting
If applicable, what hotel did you receive?: Holiday Inn Bayside (Point Loma)

Entry 2 Windows PC
Entry time: 9:03:??
Submission time: 9:06:??
Browser: Cannot remember
How certain are you about the times? Less certain here -- definitely AFTER entry 2 was finished
What hotel was your top choice? Hilton Bayfront
How many downtown hotels did you choose (0-6): 6
How many non-downtown hotels did you choose (0-6): 0
How many rooms did you request?: 1
What was the earliest arrival date and latest departure date requested?: 7/17 - 7/21
What option did you pick if your preferred hotels weren't available? (closest to the convention center, lowest available rate, shuttle route, disregard my request if choices aren't available): can't remember
What waitlist preference did you pick?: Yes
Did you enter a Member ID?: Yes
If you get a notification, what group were you in? Second group
What was your result? Downtown hotel -- not on my list
If applicable, what hotel did you receive?: Hotel Republic

These results make no sense to me. Second request was the same as the first, essentially, and got in later, but DID get downtown?

My results make no sense. I got in at 9:01 and made requests for the top 5 hotels (Bayfront, MMM, MGH, Omni, Hard Rock). 1 room, two occupants. My request came back with... Holiday Inn Point Loma? What??

Ok, now for my nephew. He got in at 9:03 and finished his form well after me. His results? Hotel Republic. Not on his list at all (we had the same list) but how did that request get downtown and mine didn't, with a full two minutes in advance? We had the exact same request!

Were you both in notification group 2? Also, did you both chose the "closest to the convention center" option?

I have nothing, as a strange result, I can report someone not on the forums who had listed needing rooms from Tues-Monday got 1 night (??) at the Hard rock for Tues-Wed.  And I can confirm this person was def telling the truth about the odd 1 night offer which isn't helpful at all to them? What is going on?

Also my own submission got me in at 9:03, finished at 9:05. I have yet to receive an email.

That is an interesting one, is there any way to confirm what they actually entered in the form?  I do wish that onPeak would send a summary email after the form is submitted.
